It's the camera's auto white balance that is a bit thrown off. In reality it is a lot less blue, and to my eyes it it more like a cool white. However, at very low levels (< 5) in a dark room the color looks a lot warmer.

Edit to add:
The candid responses some of you are getting from Amazon could also be viewed as an attempt from their side to gain accept for this problem, and to prevent customers from entering (or continuing) the return/replace-dance. After all, it costs Amazon money to do that, even if they are returning refurbished (or repackaged) units.
